Gun Control Uncertainty Draws a Few More Firearm Shoppers

President Trump is unveiling his plans for new gun control policies, nearly one month after the school shooting in Florida. The plan calls for rigorous firearms training for some teachers and urges Congress to pass a bill to make the federal background check system more effective.

But the President did not official propose increasing the minimum age to buy a firearm to 21. Some Four Staters are still uneasy about the President's plan.

16-year-old Richard Stotts wants to get a riffle at 18 to help with his future service in the Marines.

"Get comfortable with the rifle," says Stotts. "I won't be scared. I'll at least know how to take it apart or something."

Stotts wants a rifle besides what he'll get in the military so he can practice at home. But he knows a lot can happen politically between now and then.

"A lot of people have different points of views," says Stotts.

Right now, the government's age restrictions are 18 to buy a rifle and 21 to buy a handgun.
